1:49 am
airport overnight. it is currently closed. family members and friends are there, though they are gathering. >> on the nearby potomac river and overnight search after a flight from wichita, kansas collided with an army blackhawk helicopter. abc news aviation analyst john nance joins us live. john. we want to ask you a few questions here as we learn more information. it's believed that this passenger jet was using a runway or was instructed to use a runway, runway 33. that's not as common as runway one. how much could that have contributed to this disaster? >> the contribution, if there was one, was probably in terms of the fact that that runway is not normally possessed of an airplane making an approach. and if the helicopter thinks that the pilot thinks that there is no conflict that could draw him into making a decision that he hadn't seen the airplane or he hadn't seen the jet on the final approach. that's all speculation at this point, but it's a pretty
1:50 am
good place to begin. >> and john, we heard from some of that audio. it appears that the black hawk helicopter was asked if they saw that commercial jet, and they did confirm that they did see it. the president posted on truth social overnight, saying in part, why didn't the control tower tell the helicopter what to do instead of asking if they saw the plane? this is a bad situation that looks like it should have been prevented. do you think that that is a fair assessment? what are your thoughts on that? >> no, i think it's an uninformed assessment because first of all, we don't know all the details we need to know. and secondly, it just doesn't work quite that way all the time. we have. and with airplanes and helicopters in the same airspace under visual conditions, there's a thing called see and avoid. and there is a language that goes along with this and it's very common, like many times a day, thousands of times a day for a controller to say, do you have this traffic in sight or stay behind this traffic, or do
1:51 am
you see him? and the problem here is that the helicopter pilot may have seen traffic, but it may not have been the traffic that they were looking for, partially because of using a different runway. and there are many other possibilities that could have contributed to that. >> john, this is the first commercial crash since 2009. i know the details are limited right now, but so far, what stands out to you about this crash? >> well it's unique. to a great extent, i think the thing that stands out here is that this is one of the most busy, if you will, and most controlled corridors of air traffic in the united states. and for something like this to happen in that situation means that we've got to go back to the drawing board on what's necessary to make sure not only that it never happens again, but that all air traffic is sufficiently separated by something other than just to see and avoid system. in other words, if, for instance, the helicopter pilots were using night vision goggles, that makes things pretty difficult. that could have contributed to their
1:52 am
inability to see the location of the other jet. because you can be sure that these pilots would not have voluntarily put themselves in proximity to that jet if they'd known it was there. so there was a misunderstanding somehow. >> and, john, we have reported on close call after close call, after close call in recent years that a lot of our major airports here in the u.s. is it fair to ask, could some of this be going on? could be relevant to the air traffic controller shortage, or is it too soon to speculate on that? >> i don't think it's anything to do with the shortage. i think basically we have been following along over many decades of trying to find a way to permanently separate traffic, and we have gotten very, very good at it. but we are still finding places where bakeware set and these razor sharp chef's knives free from granite. stone. has your old set of pans lost their slick? does
